I’m staring through the window one more time
all the colors press against my heart
Every blue and white shapes the shadows away
all the days gone by
watch the ice strain through the distance
Children push their nets through the streets
Like a circus ring we never have to pretend
The games we used to play
run to whisper through the light
Light up the days
Christmas edges close in the air
when we used to dream in the dark
spark the light against the mismatched distance
everyday when we used to pray differently
if I could hold a difference through your eyes
Shake my lost understanding
I still see the outline against your back
all the bridges we used to break
I watch you paint the photographs on the wall
All the words breaking the shadows away
Colors bleed from you hand
Every part of imagination you persuade
When you used to remind me of the past
I never had to shut my mouth
Now I know the future is here to stay
The children don’t have to hide their words deep inside
If we could start this all over again
Suspend this time forever in our hearts
You make me wonder why
You make me wonder why
Everything that we could ever be
You just make me stronger
Everything that is possible
Like a ghost we walk the streets
I know things are better this time
Burn through the focus and stare against the light
Jump against the air
Doesn’t it feel right this way?
Doesn’t it feel right this way?
Shake the shadows into thin air
If I could feel again
Watch the horses cross the sky
Do they have secrets left to keep?
You never lied to me
I feel so much stronger in this place
I feel so much better
Forget when their words broke the glass against your heart
I know you make my dreams come
Tag: faith
“I hear tomorrow in your eyes”
I hear tomorrow in your eyes
past this point of view
to rule the existence
We watch children march across these wires
lost in the day behind this window
sustain this look past many years
we start to connect the skies
hold on to me
hold on to me
I watch the voices cross the line
don’t abandon this love
hold this string against your heart
pin every emotion towards the sky
we hold onto every day
don’t lose these years
will time break through the line across photographic skies
I watch the colors in the distance
all the shapes running against my mind
I take the blame for your mistakes
to shelter the fuel against the window
to break a million pieces of glass through my heart…
to break a million stars to remember how…
I see the sun shine behind tomorrow
I start to remember the lost days between hospital wards
turn the page through time and lift regret away
when can we run skyscrapers towards the sun?
run through tomorrow
don’t let go
don’t let go
don’t abandon this love
“People With Matchbook Eyes”
people with matchbook eyes
decipher which way we tick
seven strikes on film
like the broken bird upon your chest
past the point of declaration
stumble through sober breaths
collapse against these mirrors
mistakes end the colors inside my head
can’t choose my face out of obscurity
words take the young from the distance
remember figures like pin-point dreams
a horseman lost in their hands
break the kite against imagination
pick apart realization
a million red balloons burst from your eyes
drive through the wall before it’s all gone too far
my true reflection half-disguised
don’t waste your breath with this disease
lost suggestions wasted upon the shore
knocking on hidden doors
can’t find the words in your eyes to pave the distance
can’t find a way out
men waste away fallen with haste
laughter half-spoken splinters a faceless disguise
patients watch children draw through magazines
lost in hospital wards to count away time
colors in the hall ingest the future sparked like multiplicity
eyes stab my insecurities
every witness they guide to the promise land
every weakness torn apart by forgiveness
which way we break the days of turmoil
men stand in the distance
break apart their pride through shores on the hill
run through time falling like horsemen
every book on film torn through the wind
I catch you in the distance in a figurine
men locked across voices
drive past my youth to breach the hidden voices
a hundred visions lost upon time
shape my words like telegraphic skies
a longshot to every fortitude
I see a million colors in the wind
to break through the locks
to withstand the beauty of a hundred pieces
to pray against a memory gone astray
I see you in the distance
to walk the waters one more time
to wash a million sins away
I see you in the distance
to walk the waters one more time
Men Push Their Days Away In Factory Wards
chasing cars like motorcade
reach through your mind
don’t forget the steps we choose to get this far
men push away their days
in factory wards
empty out my imagination
but are we doing fine?
cars crash behind longevity
pictures burned between my fingers
stamp out every frame
run through the horses
capture my faith
shake this pain apart
shelf-life
confusion beyond deterioration
looking for hope within
like the tunnels diving deeper inside
change beyond recollection
seams we tear apart with apathy
a clue into your instinct
the right to tranquility
men crash in shopping carts
time lifting from their hands
catching a million photographs in the wind
the bright colors drifting me closer to you
like the chemicals drifting out of sequence
a false analysis like sedimentary angels
when I grip my faith across billboard screens
the sounds lighting the future
colors like emotions re-separate
the time clock spins faster but I am drifting backwards into this chair
all the determination withstands a shelf-life
re-ignite and re-engage the glass of a broken dream
